Day 7 quarantine, and I may finish this #babysfirstfairisle sweater by the time we’re out. I know it’s not the best to knit with because of the ply, and uneven strands, and it pulls so easy, but I LOVE the colors of #chromayarn especially as the contrast to stranded knitting. . #covid_19 #quarantinelife #day7 #merinastrand #hiyahiyaneedles #fairisleknitting #knittersofinstagram #babysweater https://www.instagram.com/p/B98SjbmJyIv/?igshid=1qe8ser6a4der

With every action, an equal and opposite reaction. The current stressors of these times require an equal and opposite means to decompress and process. This 2.5mm fair isle with #chromayarn is the perfect way to adjust. #takecare everyone . #merinastrand #chroma #babysfirstfairisle #babysweater #knitting #stayhome #knittersofinstagram #covid_19 https://www.instagram.com/p/B90W2yMpaCX/?igshid=l1iglivjb7ed

Two and a half hours spent on this fair isle chart (not including the ribbing) and I’m juuuuuust starting to see the pattern! 🧶😍 Fingering weight fair isle truly is a labor of love. . #fairisleknitting #fingeringsweater #chromayarn #babysfirstfairisle #babysweater #fairisletakesforever #merinastrand https://www.instagram.com/p/B2mNezsJKQF/?igshid=1iu41vak4wfxe

It’s been a long time since I’ve done stranded work, and it took forever to find my knitting thimble 😝 picked up this #babysfirstfairisle #sweater and made it to the second row of the chart after the corrugated ribbing 🥰💕🧶 . I cast this on while pregnant thinking maybe it’d be done in time for his first birthday, then took it out and cast on the larger size. Looks like I’ve got about 8 years for him to be able to fit in it now! . #fairislesweater #chromayarn #fairisleknitting #knittersofinstagram #merinastrand #babysweater #strandedknitting #colorworkknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/B2S-k1tpxQM/?igshid=13snmsezkrqm6

Day 9 #fiberuarychallenge : #ravelry queue 🧶 I don’t have anything in my 9th spot, but this is my first item in the queue. I had intended to have this done before the baby was born, but knew it was ambitious. Currently I’m still on the corrugated ribbing of the sweater base. Maybe by his first birthday 😛🥰 . #accidentalsteeking #fiberuary #merinastrand #knittersofinstagram #knitting #colorwork #babysfirstfairisle #sweater #fairisleknitting #fairislesweater #chromayarn https://www.instagram.com/p/Btq0syxl0mh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1axnvnfw2nzkb
